BRIEF HISTORY OF THE FREE BEER & HOT WINGS SHOW. The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show began as an afternoon show in Omaha, Nebr., at non-commercial radio station KIWR in March 1997. The show was comprised of two former Central Michigan University roommates who eventually moved to mornings several months later. They remained there until summer 2000, when they moved to WBON in Knoxville, Tenn. In June 2002, the show moved to New Jersey, where it was simulcast on WTHK in Trenton, N.J., and WCHR on The Jersey Shore. “The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show” began full syndication in 2004 with the addition of 97.9 WGRD in Grand Rapids, and is now heard on radio stations in 15 states

WHERE DID THE NAME COME FROM? Instead of calling the show “The Gregg & Chris Show,” which by all estimations would have been the most boring sounding radio show in the world, the decision was made to call it “The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show,” which seemed far more attention grabbing. It was admittedly nothing more than a cheap ploy to get people to listen under the false pretense that they may actually have a chance to win beer and/or hot wings. However, it was not intended that those two things would become permanently synonymous and attached to Gregg and Chris as nicknames, but that’s what happened and now they have to live with the consequences of their B.S. forever.

Today on Segment 16, the guys talked about a variety of topics including the fact that Michigan has a pothole hotline, people trying to resell Live at Night Tickets for an exorbitant amount of money, and the three b-holes Joe encountered at Kuzzin's on Saturday.

It's almost Valentine's Day, and you know what that means - you have to go out and look through all of the stupid, sappy cards they sell to find one that maybe sort of fits how you feel. Well, search no more! We've created Free Beer & Hot Wings Valentine's Day cards!

Right in the middle of the show this morning, out of nowhere, a coworker of ours busted into the studio with his friend, dressed in tactical gear, and started shooting us with Nerf guns. Understandably, it led to some awkwardness.

A few weeks ago, the old bathrooms in our building were decommissioned and replaced with temporary bathrooms down the hall. However, even though the plumbing has been disconnected, some monster in this office is still using the old toilets.
